How to use this Fathoms to Earth's polar radius Converter π€
Follow these steps to convert given length from the units of Fathoms to the units of Earth's polar radius.
Enter the input Fathoms value in the text field.
The calculator converts the given Fathoms into Earth's polar radius in realtime β using the conversion formula, and displays under the Earth's polar radius label. You do not need to click any button. If the input changes, Earth's polar radius value is re-calculated, just like that.
You may copy the resulting Earth's polar radius value using the Copy button.
To view a detailed step by step calculation of the conversion, click on the View Calculation button.
You can also reset the input by clicking on Reset button present below the input field.
What is the Formula to convert Fathoms to Earth's polar radius?
The formula to convert given length from Fathoms to Earth's polar radius is:
Substitute the given value of length in fathoms, i.e., Length(Fathoms) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the length in earth's polar radius, i.e., Length(Earth's polar radius).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider that a ship anchors in water that is 30 fathoms deep. Convert this depth from fathoms to Earth's polar radius.
Answer:
Given:
The length in fathoms is:
Length(Fathoms) = 30
Formula:
The formula to convert length from fathoms to earth's polar radius is:

Fathoms
A fathom is a unit of length used primarily in maritime contexts to measure water depth. One fathom is equivalent to 6 feet or approximately 1.8288 meters.
The fathom is defined as 6 feet, making it a convenient measurement for nautical and maritime applications, particularly for depth soundings and underwater measurements.
Fathoms are commonly used in navigation, fishing, and marine activities to describe the depth of water. The unit provides a practical measurement for underwater distances and has historical significance in maritime practices.
Earth's polar radius
The Earth's polar radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the poles. One Earth's polar radius is approximately 6,356.8 kilometers or about 3,949.9 miles.
The polar radius is shorter than the equatorial radius due to the Earth's oblate spheroid shape, which results from its rotation causing a bulge at the equator and a flattening at the poles.
The Earth's polar radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to accurately describe the Earth's shape and dimensions. It is essential for understanding Earth's gravitational field, polar regions, and measurements related to the planet's overall geometry.
